Chapter 36: A conversation that changed fate

Views:

"I'm ack!"

Su Feng, who has lived for two generations, knows how shocking Jordan's comeback will be this time.

However, because he already knew the reason for this episode in advance, Su Feng thought that there would not be too many waves in his heart.

However, Su Feng soon discovered:

myself, still too young.

Only here can you experience the most intuitive impact of the earthquake when Michael Jordan announced his comeback in March 1995.

All TV stations in the United States, no matter what news or programs they are broadcasting, have stopped at this moment.

And this kind of news treatment generally only appears when the leader of the rice family is assassinated and the Gulf War.

On TV, when Michael Jordan appeared, people were at first overwhelmed, then nostalgic, and then excited.

At Bryant's house, when Su Feng saw the news with Kobe and Kobe's father Joe, Su Feng noticed the change in the expressions of the father and son.

Kobe's body was shaking, unstoppable.

Qiao slowly put down the can of Coke in his hand, and Su Feng noticed an obvious dent on the can.

At this moment, the flames seemed to spew out of Kobe's chest.

Joe, who was sitting on the sofa, kept shaking his legs, and his breathing became more and more rapid.

"I'm ack!"

he.

Michael Jordan.

came back!

The whole of North America went crazy!

All endorsements and commercial stocks related to Jordan skyrocketed in an instant.

At the same time, the seven major bookmakers in North America immediately revised the Chicago Bulls' winning odds from 40 to 1 to 5 to 1.

The remaining tickets for the Bulls, whether it is home or away, are all sold out.

NC TV urgently adjusted the live broadcast plan of Jordan's first comeback against the Pacers, from the original live broadcast to only half of the United States to a live broadcast of the United States.

All the front pages of the newspapers featured a photo of Michael Jordan the next day, along with his classic "I'm ack!"

Major TV stations and newspapers are urgently mobilizing basketball reporters they can mobilize, and next, these people have only one task:

Fly to Chicago and bring back first-hand coverage of Jordan.

What kind of public opinion influence is this

What kind of energy is this

How popular is this

As we all know, this is an age without social networks.

However, the chain reaction triggered by Jordan's comeback this time, even in the future, is quite rare.

Some people say that Michael Jordan was officially consecrated after the last three consecutive games.

But in fact, in March 1995, when he announced his comeback, he was already on the throne.

NA shook.

The four major North American sports leagues were shaken.

If David Stern personally held up the great god Michael Jordan, then now, the little old Jewish man can't believe what he saw.

Even if NA had already learned about Jordan's comeback in advance, and even if Stern had made countless plans, in front of Jordan...

These are not worth mentioning.

The whole of America has gone crazy.

All of NA's superstars were instantly stressed.

Among them, the defending champion Houston Mosaic bears the brunt.

As soon as Jordan announced his comeback, people wanted to interview Da Meng and Tang Shuai.

But Su Feng knows...

At this moment, Tang Shuai is still making big moves.

Therefore, this time Mosaic chose silence.

Countless Qiao Mi could no longer contain their inner excitement.

Look, no matter how hilarious you were playing.

Now, let's watch the ending with us.

For the United States, which is in a crisis of unemployment at this time, when he learned of Jordan's comeback, the head of the rice family even said excitedly in an interview: "Jordan's comeback will add 10 million jobs to the United States. ."

The last thing the mayor of Chicago wanted to do at this moment was to hug Jordan and kiss him, because he knew that Chicago's economy had survived the LEI again!

cough cough.

All in all...

But Su Feng has no culture.

A word of shit goes around the world.

And just as Su Feng was calming the shock of Jordan's comeback, aside...

Kobe suddenly said, "I've decided."

Su Feng turned his head and glanced at Kobe, and sent an O'Neal question mark emoji to Kobe.

Brother, what have you decided

"I'm going to skip university and bring my talent directly into NA!" Kobe said seriously, earnestly, and without joking looking at Su Feng.

Su Feng: "..."

Um... ...

Um.

In fact, Su Feng really wanted to tell Kobe, you don't have to tell me about this, I already knew it.

However, in this life, after becoming friends with Kobe, Su Feng also dispelled the rumors about why Kobe skipped college and went directly to NA.

In fact, in Su Feng's previous life, there are many versions of the conjecture about why Kobe skipped college.

In Kobe himself and in many Kobe biographies, the following are usually used:

"I must have a fair contest with him on the court before he retires!" Kobe said excitedly to Su Feng.

Su Feng is not stupid, he knows that what Kobe said about him is Michael Jordan.

Although NA at the moment allows players to skip college, Su Feng, who is familiar with history, knows very well that even in this period, players who skip college directly are different in NA.

In 1974, Moses Malone, who graduated from high school, couldn't bear to see his mother working hard because of his poor family, so he decided to skip college and make a lot of money.

In 1989, Sean Kemp, who sacrificed his IQ in exchange for his basketball talent, thought that since he couldn't even pass the college exam by cheating, he might as well play NA.

Add Dallowby and Wilkens, yes, before 1995, high school students in NA were so rare, all of them were giant pandas.

Therefore, players who dare to skip college and go directly to NA are either gifted or have reasons for skipping college.

But Su Feng remembers very clearly that in 1995, there will be Garnett, and in 1996, there will be Kobe and O'Neal Jr., and in 1997, there will be McGrady.

And in the future, there will be many players who run to the election halfway through college.

You know, this is not the future.

This is the 1990s. Players at this time generally play 3 to 4 years in college before joining NA.

Even Vince Carter spent three years in college, not to mention Duncan. After college, "Stone Buddha" joined NA slowly.

If you look at the quality of the draft, in addition to the well-known golden generation in 1996, the quality of the draft in 1997 and 1998 is also very high.

So, what is it that makes these talented basketball wizards eager to play NA

You know, in 1995, NA has introduced new regulations.

Now, rookies can no longer charge as much as they used to.

In fact, in Su Feng's previous life, many keyboard warriors and experts in the future have come to the same conclusion when sorting out biographies and recalling past events:

That's where people in the 90s seemed to be very hard-headed.

Different concepts of the times have created a lot of misunderstandings.

After Jordan announced his comeback, for these young talents, it was like adding a blood UFF to them invisibly.

Omg, Jordan is back!

Go, brothers, copy guy!

That's right, for many rookies who joined NA after Jordan's comeback, they all had a belief that:

The labor is playing Jordan!

If the head is not iron, it is a juvenile.

Although not everyone has such a mentality, but during this period, there are indeed many young talents who joined NA with such an idea.

In time for Michael Jordan to retire, and Jordan played tricks.

In Su Feng's previous life, many people believed that Kobe joined NA in a hurry to hammer Hardaway, in order to avenge Hardaway's revenge for not giving him autographs and photos.

But actually...

At this time, Kobe didn't know that Hardaway would be reimbursed for the season in the future. For the young Kobe, Hardaway was also young at the time, and Kobe had the opportunity to fight with Hardaway.

You know, after Kobe joined NA, his most exciting moment was to fight with Jordan.

Including the 1996 No. 1 overall pick Allen Iverson.

These young people seem to be obsessed, and they all want to play with Jordan.

And Jordan also refused to come.

Because Jordan, who came back for the second time, seems to have become a sign, a symbol.

Chicago has become the new basketball mecca, facing these young pilgrims, Jordan did not tell them that the future is yours...

Because the greatest joy of "old hooligans" is to leave a shadow in the hearts of these newcomers.

Come on, kids, work hard and you'll soon surpass me!

If you have seen NA in the 1990s, you will know how "black-bellied" Jordan is.

He is like a senior with "bad taste", and he is always happy to fight against newcomers, and is deeply involved in it.

And the rookies are also happy to play against Jordan, because if you score about the same as Jordan, you can blow to your friends: I'm 55 with Jordan.

In Su Feng's impression, the worst newcomer who was destroyed was Stackhouse, a famous supporting actor in NA.

Hey, why is there such a thing when something like this happens

Don't be surprised, if it's a shame to be beaten one-on-one by Kobe before his candidacy, Stackhouse's rude words to Jordan are a public execution.

In the 95/96 season, Stackhouse, who averaged 19.2 points per game at that time, felt that he was invincible, so he ran to the media and said: I am not afraid of Jordan, I can kill Jordan, he is no longer the one he used to be. Jordan.

Then, after learning of the incident, Jordan destroyed Stackhouse's confidence to the point of the 76ers.

In the face of his North Carolina junior brother, Jordan scored 48 points and only scored 12 points against Stackhouse.

At that time, in order to avoid being abused in the future, Stackhouse had to say from his heart after the game: "My brother is really hot-tempered, I hope he won't be so hot in the future..."

In addition, Jordan has many famous cases of training newcomers, such as Payton...

Of course, there are exceptions here.

That is Jordan is very fond of Kobe Bryant.

Because in the face of his imitator, Jordan felt that his past seduction was worth it. Look, even if I am gone in the future, people in the world can think of me as long as they see Kobe...

My disciple Kobe, can fight the whole league!

Whoops, farther away.

At the Bryant family, listening to Kobe's classic line, Su Feng performed it very cooperatively: "Are you serious?"

Kobe nodded, "Seriously, of course! I'm going to skip college, and I have to fight Michael."

Su Feng pretended to be shocked and took a breath, then immediately gave Kobe a thumbs up.

come on!

Kobe!

Look good on you!

And just when Su Feng was thinking about how to perform next, Kobe suddenly looked at Su Feng and asked, "By the way, Su, have you considered your future? Do you want to go to university? Which university are you going to go to? "

Su Feng was stunned.

Then.

he... ..

petrified.

"!!!"

Because the moment Kobe asked him this question, in his mind:

"System: It's time to plan your NA route!"

"Please choose one of the following two tasks to complete."
